Bit.Trip Runner sequel racing onto XBLA, PSN

A follow-up to Gaijin's lovely BIT.TRIP RUNNER has announced, under the catchy name BIT.TRIP Presents: Runner 2, Future Legend of Rhythm Alien. It's coming to XBLA and PSN in 2012 with a lovely new art style.

Runner 2 moves away from the retro-styled graphics the BIT.TRIP series is known for, breaking out a "smooth, graphic, and somewhat cartoony" style. It'll boast heaps of new abilities for CommanderVideo and the other playable characters, leaderboards, unlockable costumes, and other shiny things yet to be revealed.

"Runner 2 is going to blast open your mind like a blooming flower and Gaijin Games is going to pollinate it with our fun proboscises," Gaijin art master Mike Roush said in the announcement.
